There is an engine failure light. They have to have it to race. But it's an oxymoron. A light telling you the engine is dead. He had a chuckle with that one.
Yes but her time was BtG - Bridge to Gantry (19.1km) i belive his was the Complet Nordschleife (20.832km) so the 2 times are hard to compare with each other. But i belive too that Sabine could have found a few more seconds with that Van he is driving becaues she basicly had known every little Rock on that Track
Guy. Love the supervan run. Awesome. Just found the episode in Japan with the master machinist. The way you reacted and felt is the same way I still feel when I work a lathe or mill. Passion,Precision, Performance, Perfection. Awesome.
Great video Guy! I watch one every day Mate! Great entertainment and family quality! I share with my friends they have all started watching you ! Kudos again from Outerbanks of North Carolina USA
i love vans some stuff they are not great at, but the will do anything. The one van that got me starting to love vans and are still my favorit, is the Ford Supervan 2. i wonder how that or the ather Ford supervans can do around that track
One of my highlights of your series guy. Always loved a transit. Lucky enough I had a bit of sight when you did this program so I was lucky enough to see it but not all of it unfortunately it was slightly blowy on the screen but the sounds was amazing. Hope you go racing soon as if you go to Browns it I will definitely be there love the smell and the sounds of vehicles racing around
Typical Ford Driver 😂 20 Miles after fixing the Car -> the Ford is on Fire and the Driver is still laughing, its not that bad just keep going.... Great Video 🤣👍
Please make the british bald guy... what's his name.. the Irish from Snatch... Jesus, Jason Statham voice the intro. In the Australian backdrop, somewhere deep in the wilderness of rattle snakes and awol cangaroos - a guy sits in the shed, planning about his beat-up, all turbos no diesel Transit van. This guy is Guy Martin.
I know vans are not good because of aerodynamics, but aside from that I love vans! Which is probably why Tesla is so hesitant to build a van but they have a truck and a pick up truck which are both more aerodynamic but it’s doable
WELL... i really need to shake your hands Man.. You Guy .. i need to see your truck repair shop too.... and .. You remember.. i'm coming there for a mug of your tea buddy .. BTW.. nice looking F1 shoes you put on to get the fastest lap... HAHAHAh you're the best ..
I don't mind Guy Martin, but lets put this in context. He did 9.28 in a 700bhp+ mid engined transit with bespoke suspension, massive brakes and racing tyres. Sabine Schmidt did 10.08 with a 135bhp transit which, other than removing all excess weight they could at the time, was standard, including brakes, suspension and tyres. Which IMO, was considerably a considerably more impressive achievement.
Not saying anything against Sabine she was the best. Her Van time was BtG - Bridge to Gantry (19.1km) And from the looks of it Guy did the Complet Nordschleife (20.832km) So you cant compare the times 1 to 1

Stock but stripped out a bit, they had to deal with traffic but also had a Viper ACR to draft behind for their fastest lap. Still it does highlight just how fast she got that van to go.
@@sw96 Stock but stripped out - not the same class of vehicle, tbh. Give her Guy's machine and a couple remote controlled extinguishers and she does it quicker.
@@manfredschmalbach9023 Without a doubt, track knowledge is key anywhere but doubly so at the Ring. It's a shame the engine fire didn't hold off cutting the engine until after the finish line on that second lap, wouldn't have been surprised if Guy knocked another 10-15 seconds off his time.
Ok. but Sabine has a few more laps under her belt than Guy. and she had a viper to break the air. And the british geezer with the glasses has the old record.
Should have used a Chevy G20 Cargo Van! I smoked the Tail of the Dragon in my 1987 G20 Chevy... it might have had some engine work done... or it had a engine meant to go in a dirt track late model! That and I'm One Hell Of A DRIVER!
There is only one Guy Martin he’s a doer not a talker ,the last of the old British Bulldog never give up. that’s why I like him cool not a mouthy man ,,just gets on with the job ❤️🙏😃👍🦘🇦🇺🇬🇧🧌
Guy has enough cool to spare... he’s the only one on the planet that can make a van cool. (Well, Quigley can make vans cool too, but Guy is more fun to watch)
'I'll stop the van if a red light comes up on the dash" in the same scene you can clearly see the van has no dash, Like a Boss
There is an engine failure light. They have to have it to race. But it's an oxymoron. A light telling you the engine is dead. He had a chuckle with that one.
They do have warning lights for oil pressure e.g.
But yeah.. that's one way to solve engine problems, remove the warning lights and keep going.
I wonder what Sabine could have done with this van ..RIP Queen of the Ring and well-done Guy that was awsome
Sabine would be there egging him on telling him to not worry everything gonna WUNDERBAR
Such a nice lady with a gorgious smile and a wicked sense for the track
Probably a big fire instead of small
Was thinking the same.... Such a tragic loss of a beautiful and supremely skilled woman
Sabine truly missed
Crossing the nurburgring finish line whilst on fire is the stuff Jeremy Clarkson dreams about at night.
.... in a Transit. Of course. (Maybe with Mrs Schmitz by his side for some reasonable speed, too, it's a dream after all, ain't it ...?)
Ha! "dreams about...". He ain't got the balls
Well said
Clarkson is a hack. Guy is the real deal.
The best part of this is when he says "oh so we done the record". he cares more about the van he built than the record it was built to break
no he cares more about the record than his van
That’s because he’s true to his nature, he’s an engineer first and A speed freak second! I would probably go with the engineering first God bless
Before being crashed, then subsequently converted into a beast.
This was guys everyday work van..
So yeah,,, it's cherished alright.
Just outstanding! “Well we’re not completely on fire yet, keep going...” That’s the stuff lads! 🙌🏼
You can’t get anymore British than Guy Martin. Always doing us proud 🚐💨 🏍💨🇬🇧
Guy's love for his work, engines, and speed is so wholesome.
So, when do we see Guy and his van haul ass around the Isle of Man TT course? 😎
When this stupid lockdown buggers off 🤪 I Hope !
He certainly will not need a ride along guide for the Mountain Course, will he???LOL!!!
Who doesn't love guy.. makes uou smile whilst watching... " just keep going "
them was proppa van race shoes 💪. Guy ur a legend 😂
So funny! My wife looked over at my phone and said: hmm... what is he wearing? Are those Romeos? Guy is a talented guy/man. Haha!
and no gloves either !
This guy is everything , a mechanic , a dare devil and a motorsport racer!
Love him, he’s so natural and down to earth.
This is the best stuff to watch, even the damn CV joint animation to show the normal folks. Unbelievable. Proper show for a proper lad.
the energy and passion and skill and knowledge that Guy has is something special not to mention a giant set of tessticles
Guy Martin needs to be on more TV shows, what TV shows do you think would benefit from his presence?
I'm thinking he could be the next Doctor who!!
I think he’s had a lot of offers for other shows but doesn’t have interest in them so he declines
Words escape me. What a lunatic! Respect.
Everyone says it and one word says it all........LEGEND.
That's what is called a really "hot" lap. Guy never ceases to amaze!!
Been a year or 2. Time to watch this again. Guy martin is awesome and inspiring
should have given it to Sabine(R.I.P.), she got 10:08 from a bog-standard transit. Imagine what she could have done in that....
Yes but her time was BtG - Bridge to Gantry (19.1km) i belive his was the Complet Nordschleife (20.832km) so the 2 times are hard to compare with each other.

"Right, here we go boss!"
Gotta love Guy! 😅
We want more record attemps of guy on the Nordschleife.
Gratz on this one🤘
I've met guy and he is one of the nicest people you can ever meet
Guy, The JCB and that track! Make it so.
Keep going. It's not completely on fire yet. 😂😂
Finally!
Sweet, Guy.
Making me fall in love with madness.
- ‘ But i need my parcel very fast ‘
- ‘ It just has been delivered at your doorstep, sir ‘
Red light....? What red light...? LOL !! That Guy is a real number!! , kindest regards from Belgium.
Guy. Love the supervan run. Awesome. Just found the episode in Japan with the master machinist. The way you reacted and felt is the same way I still feel when I work a lathe or mill. Passion,Precision, Performance, Perfection. Awesome.
Eccentrics are what made our country great...
Gotta admire his enthusiasm (wait for the red light love it) 😍👍
Should of let Sabine in that van before we lost her. She would of forsure set the legend guy in the dust :P
Guy's enthusiasm is magnetic...
wonder how fast Sabine Schmitz (R.i.P.) could of got it round in with her immense knowedge of the Ring!
Great video Guy! I watch one every day Mate! Great entertainment and family quality! I share with my friends they have all started watching you ! Kudos again from Outerbanks of North Carolina USA

Guy is a complete G! Racing with the van on fire and wont stop !! Ive got a mk7 transit 2.3 petrol .. wanna race guy 👍🏾😎🤜🏽
There's smoke...
Ah well, hammer down!
What a mad fellow :)
On a bike in a van i love it guy keep it up
the best entertainment out of gy lol bet Clarkson loved this
I'd love to see Guy Martin and Allen Millyard collaborate on a project

What a legend this man is! 😂
GUY MARTIN FOR PRESIDENT!
what a hell of courage brother ...all the very best :)
This man is the personification of speed.
Guy is the man !
This track eats cars, but Guy did a exelent job and beat it. Outstanding.
If DMO ever get his van done I would love to see them race.
Nice boots Guy :)
Still can't get used to the close cropped Guy, but by now I've see enough of his posts that I can actually understand him when he talks
It's on fire guy 🤔 ah we be fine 😂 classic, well done 👌
Guy a proper English superman 😘❤️
Typical Ford Driver 😂 20 Miles after fixing the Car -> the Ford is on Fire and the Driver is still laughing, its not that bad just keep going.... Great Video 🤣👍
Engines on fire. Guy giggles
This guy is awesome.
What a Guy.
This is real express delivery lol.
Where to watch the full video of lap1?
As a Nordschliefe fan, I'd love to watch it!
ua-cam.com/video/bDnM_cfZV-o/v-deo.html
How can not love this guy. But super van 4.2 out. Know
Guy Martin you're awesome!
He could probably paddle a canoe around that track and break the record 👊🏼💪🏼🇬🇧
On a more rainy day, why not? ;)
I aways feel like the narrator is revealing big secrets using that voice.
That’s why he narrates a lot of dramatic moments in these kind of shows or series - it almost makes it
Blessed by God fear no man but my heart took a beat when I seen this super van😍
Superb enjoyed this video 👍🏼
Love the fire proof boots😂👍
‘Can you hear me now?’
🤣
Love you did a great job guy Martin
Guy s a FKN Legend !!
Best guy on internet also named as guy

10.08 in a standard transit,what a lap
Well done mate 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
2,35 love the racing boots
Guy has raced just about anything that got an engine in it. When is he going to do the Red Bull air race?
I know vans are not good because of aerodynamics, but aside from that I love vans! Which is probably why Tesla is so hesitant to build a van but they have a truck and a pick up truck which are both more aerodynamic but it’s doable
Proper van boy🔥💯

I thought it was Guy Martin is superman... time for new glasses! TFS, G :)
Sabine did it in the old, slower shape transit with no power modifications 😂 well done though guy 👏
awesome video
Top man!

Her Van time was BtG - Bridge to Gantry (19.1km)
And from the looks of it Guy did the Complet Nordschleife (20.832km)
So you cant compare the times 1 to 1
The original fastest van lap was done by Sabine Schmidt in a STANDARD transit. Put her in that van and she will probably do a sub 9 minute
Just re-watched that - she did 10:08 in a basically stock van with traffic!
@@BrianWatsons Yes but she did BtG - Bridge to Gantry (19.1km)and his lap is from the looks of it Complet Nordschleife (20.832km) So there is a bit of a diferenc here.
But he had a tube frame purpose built 692 HP and a clear traffic
Sabine had traffic and 134 HP………
You the man 💯❤️
Awesome
You are a true badass! Keep having fun brother!
I would love to hangout with this guy.
He’s just doing this in his Chelsea boots 😂
Luv it!
Sabine would be jealous and would want to beat you in it!
RIP Queen of the Nürburgring
2:51 old record was 9.57... wtf !?
Sabine Schmitz did it in 10.04 with the completely stock diesel Transit !
Stock but stripped out a bit, they had to deal with traffic but also had a Viper ACR to draft behind for their fastest lap. Still it does highlight just how fast she got that van to go.
I thought Sabine did the Bridge to Gantry run and not the whole circuit - need to add 50 seconds or more to that time.
@@sw96 Stock but stripped out - not the same class of vehicle, tbh. Give her Guy's machine and a couple remote controlled extinguishers and she does it quicker.

So your turbo went straight to hell, huh? Now you know it's green!
It's not weird the record was broken. A racevan compared to a standard van. But I think there is a build that can beat that record
Should have used a Chevy G20 Cargo Van! I smoked the Tail of the Dragon in my 1987 G20 Chevy... it might have had some engine work done... or it had a engine meant to go in a dirt track late model! That and I'm One Hell Of A DRIVER!
Oh, my Van caught fire a few time as well, mostly due to my bad wiring job.... that and cooking the brakes!

Try it with same transit model what Sabine drove 10: 08.
Guy has enough cool to spare... he’s the only one on the planet that can make a van cool. (Well, Quigley can make vans cool too, but Guy is more fun to watch)
what engine is in the van?
